this may be an insane question, but welcome day for the LPN program is the 29th, and it didnt say anything in the packet i got about a dress code (other than shorts are not allowed) for welcome day - how do people typically dress for this day???? casual??? i just dont want to walk in overdressed or underdressed and look like an idiot, but then again, im already in so i dont really have to "impress" them....

any great places in memphis to buy scrubs??? Im going to be in that area this week, and need new uniforms (mostly solids)....

does anyone know how many people on average apply to the baptist LPN program and how many are accepted? i read somewhere that the classes are 60 people, but i've heard from people who attended that this is not correct - im applying for the LPN program that begins in january and am worried that because im 26 and have had only a year of college courses will put me in the pile for non-admission - i realize that the requirements dont go beyond a high school diploma, but i know that a nearly 8 year gap in my education might seem a little strange to them - i did well in school and great on my ACT, and i think ill ace the NET exam, but im still concerned. I didnt stop going to college because i didnt want to go, i stopped going because i wasnt sure about where i wanted my education to lead, and now that i've been out working for the last 7 years, i have been able to have experiences that have led me to exactly what i want to do, and its nursing!!!! I'm going to an open house at the school later this month, but any input that anyone can give me to just ease my mind and calm me down would be greatly appreciated!
